He is referring to the free "Microsoft Office"-like office suite called "Open Office".

VBA is capable of meeting your requirement. However, id you need a UNIX scripting approach, you are going to have to use OpenOffice. The only issue with OpenOffice is that when Microsoft alters the XLS file structure, you're going to have to keep your versions status quo until OpenOffice can catch up. VBA is less likely to be a problem in this regard. Excel can change all it wants but the VB code should stay essentially the same.
